Evolve 4 stock light adequate?

I bought one at Pestmart today they were on clearance (curse my impulsive nature)... I didn't realize it was all plastic or that the "4" gallons is more like 2.7... also wtf with their fish suggestions on the box GBR and corys, really?

Anyways I am thinking of taking it back but I want to ask:Is the light that comes with the Evolve 4 really enough to grow live freshwater plants?
If so would it be low or medium light?Thanks for the info.

Definitely low light. I have crypts and anubias in mine and they are growing, but not thriving. Also I've had it for about 6 months now and the light is already starting to flicker Looking into getting a replacement light now.

I have an Evolve 4, but I got it from a local guy here in Denver so the stock light was missing. So I decided to go with 2 x 10" Finnex FugeRay 7000k LED fixtures, and the plants are going crazy!!!! Don't mind the dying dwarf hairgrass lol, I could never keep hairgrass alive, but I'm re-scaping the entire tank tomorrow and replacing the dwarf hairgrass with Brazilian Micro Sword.
